That's why I'm glad I don't have deal with that anymore lol. How do you go from blaming equipment staff to blaming travel crew not being professional enough to blaming the medical staff for saying that Giannis was okay to stay in the game and that he should've taken him out sooner. Doc isn't a bad coach, he just has a big ego and can't hold himself accountable. In the three years he was in Philly, there was always an excuse and never blamed himself for anything that went wrong.

I think coaches in general have a difficult time admitting to media/public that they are to blame.

I'm not giving Doc a pass, but people in general are not quick to admit they made mistakes.

This Bucks team is not going anywhere in the playoffs and it doesn't matter who they play. Another 1st round exit if the ship isn't turned around and my faith in that happening is on a short fuse.

It’s not even that, folks just running the joke into the ground at this point lol

“Oh wow, there’s goes Doc not taking any accountability, what a horrible person”

Like him all of a sudden taking accountability isn’t going to make you think he’s a much better HC or even a worse one, lol.

Good 10-0 start for the Sixers

17-2 start

[illwill10]

20-1 run. Embiid and Maxey with 21 each in the first half

Gotta give it to Miami. They're hella resilient. Every time Sixers get it to 16, they make runs to quickly get it to under 10. Sixers are getting a lot of good looks. They just have to stop allowing Miami to stay in it by turning it over and not boxing out

Miami has picked it up every end of quarter so far every time Sixers had a 10 point lead

Great game and very much needed win. Maxey was aggressive from the start, 37 points. Embiid was gassed in the 2nd half, but still had 29. When Maxey and Embiid is both on, it's hard to beat the Sixers. But, Kelly Oubre won the game. He has been the third best player the last couple weeks and has been clutch in the 4th lately. He has been a pleasant surprise. He plays hard, he plays how us Sixers fan want Tobias Harris to play like lol. Still have a chance at 6th. Toughest game left is Magic.

I wouldn't be surprised if Embiid sit one of these B2B, I would expect Memphis
.

Zubac had a big night for LAC. Good finish in this one.

Brandon Miller is going off right now. He's 9-9 from the field
